[Opinions] Twin Horror!
My little cousin was over yesterday and left her American Girl magazine by accident. I was flipping through it and I saw twin girls named *gasp* Shakima and Shakira. ONE letter difference! It doesn't help that they're identical. AHHH!!!

My sister and my dads cousin!My littlest or smallest, but I wouldn't call her either since shes as tall as me-a grade 7 when shes only in grade 3 and its just scary I can wear her clothes-ACK!(Although I am pretty short for my age!)My sisters full name is Marisa Anne Royveiheen
and my dads cousin(our second cousin or second aunt I believe...?)Her name is Marina Anne Royveiheen so thats one letter difference!Seija!

That's not that bad in this case, they're not sisters. Honouring someone is all right, but basically, you give names to make two people different. It's also nice IMO if twin names are connected in a way (same meaning etc), but this is a bit too much.

I've seen twins named Danny and Daniel, and also Anthony and Antonio. Whether they're off by one letter or just variations on the SAME name, I find that to be tacky. :(

Oh dear that is terrible!The nearest I would make twin names is the same first letter.- Kitty
